Blue Object Software, LLC, focusing on .NET 3.5 and C# 3.0
May, 2008
I have have been working with VS 2008, .NET 3.5 and C# 3.0.  I started with the "orcas" beta on a virtual machines using VM-Ware's Workstation.  I have created applications using the WCSF as well as the GAT/Extensions for using the Model-View-Presenter integrated with the new UNITY IOC container on the back end as well as the newer ADO Entity Framework beta 3 with LINQ.  My favorite features of C# 3.0 is the ability to use LINQ and lambda expressions with the ADO EF.  Finally application developers do not have to write their own custom DAL layer.  I was able to use the ADO EF to generate an entity data model from my SQL Server 2005 database then build a business layer on top of the generated entities and then used object queries against the database.  L2S would work well also but my focus has been on the OR/M capabilities of ADO EF.  ADO EF is still in its infancy if it is going to provide most of the features offered by more mature OR mappers but I like the progress that is coming from the ADO EF team.  I'm following the evolution of the ADO EF because I am highly interested in serialization of EF object graphs (hopefully to be released in ADO EF 1.0 RTM).  For now, object graphs are only binary serialized - which means hosting your ADO EF using WCF requires some work if you plan on serializing and hydrating object hierarchies.  For now, I just use the DAL assembly directly in my projects.  My goals for 2008 is to stay on top of the technologies and offer clients a solid path to building their application architectures without spending wasted time on  proof of concepts so the client can focus on the business model.  In 2008 I plan to get an offical RSS based blog and offer more examples of the exciting VS 2008, WCSF, Unity, ADO EF and C# 3.0 features.

Blue Object Software, LLC, using Telerik RAD Controls w/ AJAX
Jan, 2008
I've started using Telerik Rad controls w/ AJAX for my personal web-based application development.  The Telerik Rad controls offer a wealth of ASP.NET Ajax enabled controls which are easy to use and fully functional controls for your web application.  I've used Infragistics on past projects and I would recommend the Telerik controls for web-based projects because they appear to be better architected and have better performance.  For certain tasks you still need infragistics, especially Winforms  but the Telerik RAD controls for ASP.NET are worth the extra look.
